2007

Antinori Tignanello 2007 (750ML)

95 VM / 95 WA Antinori's 2007 Tignanello is wonderfully ripe and seductive in its dark cherries, flowers, spices, tobacco, sage, cedar, mint and minerals. This is as opulent a Tignanello as I have ever tasted but there is...

Carignan 2006 (750ML)

90 WE Always one of the leaders in the Premières Côtes, Château Carignan has produced a ripely juicy 2006. It is a wine that brings considerable weight, the dark fruits melding into tannins. - Roger Voss,...

Carmes De Rieussec 2007 (750ML)

Chapoutier Le Meal Ermitage 2007 (750ML)

18++ JR / 94 WA Savoury, much tighter and denser than the Greffieux (which surely has a sandy element to it?) – this is more recognisably classic Hermitage. Like licking a stone on the finish and bone dry. Very long...

Climens 2007 (6.0L)

99+ WA Tasted twice at UGC tastings, it was actually under blind conditions that the Climens 2007 re-confirmed its status as the best Sauternes of the vintage. It retains an ethereal bouquet of honey, white peach, apricot...

D'Yquem 2007 (3.0L)

98 WA / 96 WS Tasted single blind against its peers. Under blind conditions, the Yquem 2007 shines like a diamond. Nevertheless, it is initially rather taciturn on the nose, eventually opening up beautifully with touches of...

98 WA / 96 WS Tasted single blind against its peers. Under blind conditions, the Yquem 2007 shines like a diamond. Nevertheless, it is initially rather taciturn on the nose, eventually opening up beautifully with touches of...

Domenico Clerico Arte 2007 (750ML)

92 WA The 2007 Arte (90% Nebbiolo, 10% Barbera) is a dark, sumptuous beauty endowed with layers of blackberries, sweet spices, and minerals. Though still rather firm, the wine possesses superb balance and a long, impeccable...

Grahams 2007 (750ML)

97 WA / 96 JS A candidate for wine of the vintage, the 2007 Graham’s Vintage Port is complete in every way. Opaque purple-colored, it offers up an ethereal perfume of smoke, mineral, Asian spices, incense, an amalgam...

La Serena Gemini Brunello Riserva 2007 (750ML)

97 JS / 93 AG I like the spices, berries and hints of wet earth in the nose. Dried plums too. Full-bodied, with amazing intensity of exotic, decadent fruits. Velvety textured and very flavorful. Gorgeous, sexy style to this...

Margaux 2007 (750ML)

Philipponnat Clos des Goisses Juste Rose 2007 (750ML)

98 WA / 18 JR Based on the regular Clos des Goisses but blended with a certain percentage of red Pinot Noir from the same vineyard, the 2007 Clos des Goisses Just Rosé Brut has a lovely apricot color and shows a...

Ponsot Clos De La Roche 2007 (3.0L)

94 BH A magnificently complex nose offers up a mix of both high and medium-toned aromas of mostly red berries but with a panoply of background nuances including leather, tea, underbrush, spice hints, jerky and smoke, most...

Sociando Mallet 2007 (750ML)

Trimbach Gewurztraminer Sgn Hors Choix 2007 (750ML)

96 WA / 94 WS / 94 VM The 2007 Gewurztraminer Selection de Grains Nobles Hors Choix represents a cuvee designation that the Trimbachs also utilized in 1989 and 2000 for wine of near Esszencia-like richness. Essence of rose...
